That’s a fine goal but it doesn’t take away from the fact that Antarctica is a hostile environment which makes it hard to establish civilization. I’m describing reality, not my own personal wishes.

Institutions aren’t allowed to have rigorous standards anymore since those standards always end up excluding what we call “oppressed groups”. It’s too expensive to train said groups because the problem starts with the socioeconomic status o

If you made a tool and you found out that someone used your tool to save someone’s life, wouldn’t you be proud of yourself for your good work? What’s the harm in sharing the good news?

Of course it will. Mark Zuckerberg is pouring billions into VR in order to put up walls before anyone else. He has outlined plans to do so numerous times. They even changed the company name to signal their commitment! Meta faces a constant

Have you ever considered why fairy tales have persisted? Why do we see the same stories repeated time and time again? Why are tales retold in Disney and Marvel movies to the tune of billions in profit? It’s because the stories resonate, whi

I’ve had a similar experience so I’m sympathetic. However, I don’t totally believe what your psychiatrist told you. People don’t just get randomly bullied, just like people don’t get randomly popular. I believe that there’s a common set of

I saw someone who was laid off after being at Google for 16 years. I saw their resume and they had only been a manager for the last few years and before that they were just Senior. I think if you’re only L5/L6 after 16 years then you’r

In the next few decades the biggest contributors to the issues you mentioned are going to be the billions of people in Africa and Asia who are rapidly developing themselves out of poverty. What do you think we should do about that?

I’d rather not live in a society where progressives are forcing me to “get over” a dozen different things every year. How about you get your hands off my things? Who made you the arbiter of truth?

You’ve got it backwards. It should be socially acceptable to question any trend in society to understand it better. The comments below seem fine to me. You should be able to question Indians and Jews and Blacks and Whites, tall people, wome

Makes you wonder what it means if all the past AIs were plagued by the H test. And that ChatGPT only avoids it with heavy censorship. To me it says that our mediated reality is heavily censored by default to the point where an uncensored re

It’s because they’ve all grown up with great digital cameras that take a good neutral photo. To get any sort of interesting film effects they’ve had to apply filters after the fact. These 2000s point and shoots take photos that look like a

That’s not very kind. I think maybe you just don’t agree with me. It doesn’t mean I’m not here in good faith. I’ve been a member here since 2012 and most of my comments are well received. Those that are not are still my truthful opinions st
